GBL 036: Talking about My Failed Attempts at Making Money Online

It’s always easy to see someone who is making money and doing well and think they must be lucky or that it came so easy. I’m very thankful that all the years of trying and failing have finally paid off. I’m living my dreams.

It hasn’t been easy to get to this point though. In fact, I think I have taken longer than most people who are making money online. It does seem some do well on their first attempt.

It’s very possible, but I think that’s not the norm. I wish it were that easy for me. My first attempt didn’t go that well. Nor did the next or the following attempts. In fact it took many years and many embarrassing ways that I tried to make money online.

The reason I want to talk about it in today’s episode is because I know many of you have this fear of trying. I’m telling you to start now. Because your first attempt may not be successful. It’ll probably be embarrassing when you look back on it, but with each try you move slightly closer and closer.

I know that’s what helped me. At the time it felt like I was going backwards or making no progress but it all led me to where I am today.

Nice podcast Benny – thanks for sharing your struggles in your journey to your years-long “overnight” success! 🙂 You really only learn when you stumble and fail, otherwise you never know what you’ve done right to get to where you are.
